“Enjoyed it The property is ideally located in a nice quiet area with easy access to some lovely towns and resorts We must come back to this part of Devon in the summer.”

We enjoyed the peace and surrounding country side weather was a bit dampish and windy but we were out and about a restful break after my wife`s operation

- Mr Wilkinson, November 2018

“It had a great view of the sea which was much better than we expected and it is just a stone's throw away from the donkey sanctuary.”

We enjoyed seeing (and hearing!) them in the early evening as we watched the sun go down. It was very peaceful. The cottage itself was lovely, very spacious and comfortable. The facilities are good. The bed was comfortable and clean but the rest of the cottage could be cleaner. On the plus side at night you can switch off the lights and sit on the sofa and look at the stars above through the skylight!

“The rather uncomfortable double bed, every thing else was lovely”

- Mrs Hawes, October 2018

“We loved the cottage which is modern and very clean.”

The owner has furnished the bungalow well and there is everything you need. Yes the site itself is a little tired in places but the cottage boast lovely views and out of season for us was a very quiet week. The weather obviously helps and it was glorious. A couple of things that we found which need a mention. By omission the cottage does not stand on its own and is part of a block. The photograph suggests otherwise. The biggest issue is the veranda which is joined to the one next door and is not secure so we had to block this off to stop our dog going elsewhere. That really is misleading. Also as is mentioned in the guest book several times the double mattress is amazingly uncomfortable , to the point we had to move into the other room, which actually wasn't much better. The mattress's need updating asap because if you have any back issues this would make comfortable sleeping nigh on impossible.

“Most enjoyable relaxing holiday peaceful site very clean.”

- Mrs Leath, September 2018

“Nice cottage shame about rest
very nice cottage nice and clean apart from a few cobwebs top of walls at the back end .”

The back grass in photos shows all cut and trim but was very over grown with thistles in and very long not good for our pet schnauzer. also in photos shows to be a single cottage but was in a block of four found this very misleading also with no gate between other cottages decking areas so could not let dog out in evening with us. was led to believe there was a walk to the sea from back of the property but was told to over grown gates locked also the reception when you enter the site looks like a building site a mess and has been left unfinished for over 3 years and the sea view is not great as trees need to be chopped down a bit . but the cottage was nice inside and ok

“Although the cottage was first class and spotless, the surrounding left something to be desired.”

..the reception area has been closed and unfinished for three years and was in a filthy state. The photo of the cottage showed it to be detached but was the middle of a block of three and although the grass in front of the cottage was cut the surrounding area's were overgrown and untidy.
We couldn't fault the cottage itself

- Mr Wassell, June 2018

“We arrived at Keepers Cottage on Saturday 17 March and were immediately impressed with the location of the chalet/cottage within the holiday park.”

...a wonderful expanse of field directly outside the chalet which our dog needed no encouragement to explore. An awesome view of the surrounding countryside and sea made for a perfect setting. The chalet itself (definitely more of a chalet than a cottage) was lovely! Spacious, very nicely furnished and immaculately clean. Great layout with sitting room, dining area and kitchen all in one open plan unit and two very comfortable bedrooms and modern bathroom off this area. Great heating, so lovely and warm and powerful shower over bath in the bathroom.
The kitchen was equipped with everything you could want, with a modern oven, hob, microwave, toaster, kettle and an assortment of cooking pots, pans and dishes. Nothing left wanting!
The Reception at the holiday park was closed when we were there, so can't comment and the park was quiet, but would imagine it will be busier around Easter.
Unfortunately we were snowed in most of our break, so didn't get to explore much of the surrounding area that you couldn't reach on foot in deep snow, but Sidford & Sidmouth were lovely and very picturesque. Great dog walking territory and a lot of hill climbing!
The very heavy snow, marred our stay a little, but we couldn't have wanted warmer, more welcoming accomodation to return to; very impressed with Keepers Cottage, would recommend.

- Mrs Pointer, March 2018

“This is a copy of my email I sent to the owner on my return:-
Today we have returned home after spending a week in your property as detailed above.”

The days before leaving were spent watching the snow and wondering if we would be able to make the journey but, luckily, we were able to arrive on the Sunday as booked.
On walking through the door we were delighted with the sight before us. Everything looked immaculate but without losing that homely feel. Pleasant touches such as the tray of tea, coffee and biscuits; the folder with information we may need (including post codes for the shops); the brochures in the coffee table drawer ..... I could go on.
Basically, what I am trying to say is that we had a thoroughly enjoyable break spending time at Sidmouth, Seaton, Lyme Regis, and of course visits to the Donkey Sanctuary on several occasions where we always received a warm welcome. So, thank you very much for giving us the chance to have the use of your property which must give you much joy.
